PERFORMANCE

OF COMMERCIAL

SOYBEANS IN ILLINOIS

Circular 1152 / University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign / College of Agriculture / Cooperative Extension Service

plots were located on a Cisne silt loam, a poorly drained
gray prairie soil with a well-developed claypan. The
natural fertility of this soil is not high, but good fertil-
ization practices and crop rotations have brought the
yield potential of the field to a moderately high level.
The 1977 growing season was good. This test was
planted May 25 and harvested November 11.

Belleville. This test was located on the Southern
Illinois University Research Center at Belleville in St.
Clair County. George Kapusta and Chuck Strieker were
the cooperating agronomists. The trial was located on
an Ebbert silt loam soil. The 1977 growing season was
generally good for soybeans. This test was planted May
26 and harvested according to variety maturity on
September 20 and 29, and November 9.

Carbondale. This test was located on the campus
farm of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in

Jackson County. George Kapusta and Jim Hubbard
were the cooperating agronomists. The test plots were
located on a Weir silt loam soil, and were in beans in
1975 and 1976. The 1977 growing season was dry. This
trial was planted May 26 and harvested on November 8.

Dixon Springs. This test was located on the Uni-
versity of Illinois Research Center at Dixon Springs in
Pope County. George McKibben was the cooperating
agronomist. The test plots were located on a Sharon
silt loam — a light-colored, moderately well-drained,
medium-textured, bottomland soil.

Although the 1977 growing season was very favor-
able for crop growth, lodging and poor seed quality
were problems in many varieties. Some varieties (as
noted in results) showed substantial shattering at the
time of harvest. This test was planted May 26 and
harvested on November 3 and 4.
